No one knows more about the hamburger than George Motz, so it’s only fitting that he opened up his own burger joint in NYC. Check out Hamburger America!
George Motz, the burger guru extraordinaire, has been flipping patties and dishing out deliciousness for years. He has carved out a special place in American food culture and has amassed his own cult following. Hailing from the bustling streets of New York City, Motz’s love affair with food, especially burgers, started early on. Now, decades later, he’s returned to where it all began to open his first restaurant: Hamburger America.
Motz named his restaurant after his first documentary, 2005’s Hamburger America, and his book of the same name. In both, Motz went on a quest to find the best and most unique burger joints in the United States. His adventures earned him a reputation as the ultimate hamburger expert.
Outside of his restaurant, George Motz remains deeply rooted in the culinary world, collaborating with chefs, consulting on menus, and spreading burger love wherever he goes. His passion for preserving food traditions and celebrating the simple joys of American comfort cuisine continues to inspire foodies far and wide.
